Kirchberg Loop [15 km]: Fast Hike [At least 6 km/h]
Hello everyone!
For the ones like me that don't plan to party hard tonight, celebrating Duke's birthday (if that could ever be the the reason :D), but would like to go sporty early tomorrow, I got you ;) No one wants to rely on infrequent public transportation on a public holiday, so we go on a beutiful hike in the heart of the city :)
https://www.alltrails.com/trail/luxembourg/luxembourg/autour-kirchberg
**Please pay attention**: This is a hike for people that can maintain an average speed of at least 6 km/h, so that we finish the 15 km in around 2.5 hours. We could easily go above 6 km/h if you'd like since the trail is very easy! Only 257 m elevation gain. So, please join me only if you know you can keep this pace!
**Meeting point**: We meet at Coque's parking lot.
**Contact**: My wapp number is +306985027222. If you don't use wapp, my phone number is +352621132389.
**Disclaimer**: The hike is at your own risk. Please come prepared (hiking shoes, at least 1.5 litres of water, sunscreen, hat, sunglasses,...) And I repeat, please join this hike only if you can keep an average pace of at least 6 km/h :)
Lean Agentic AI: Optimising AI
In dieser Session dreht sich alles um die **Optimierung agentischer KI** unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Ökologie.
Mit der zunehmenden Verbreitung von KI in Unternehmen entwickeln sich Token-Verbrauch, Inferenzkosten, Orchestrierungsaufwand und Kontextmanagement zu entscheidenden betrieblichen Herausforderungen.
Die nächste Phase der KI-Entwicklung wird nicht nur von der Intelligenz der Modelle abhängen, sondern auch davon, wie effizient diese Intelligenz orchestriert, gesteuert und skaliert werden kann.
Lean Agentic AI stellt einen architektonischen Ansatz vor, der Lean-Engineering-Prinzipien auf agentische Systeme anwendet – wodurch unnötiger Token-Verbrauch reduziert, redundantes Schlussfolgern minimiert und die Recheneffizienz durch modulare Agenten, selektive Orchestrierung, adaptives Gedächtnis und abrufgesteuerte Intelligenz optimiert wird. Somit verringert sich automatisch auch die Umweltauswirkung von KI.
Zu Gast haben wir Navveen Balani, Executive Director bei der Green Software Foundation und ausgewiesener Experte in der Anwendung und Optimierung von KI. Er zeigt und, wie tokenbewusste Architekturen Skalierbarkeit, Latenz, Governance und ROI verbessern können und es uns gleichzeitig ermöglichen, produktionsreife KI-Ökosysteme aufzubauen, die effizient, kontrollierbar und in großem Maßstab nachhaltig sind. Die Diskussion basiert auf den Konzepten aus dem Buch des Autors, „Lean Agentic AI“.

From Real-Time Intelligence to Legacy Mastery: The Era of AI Agents
**Cloud Native Night Munich**
AI agents are rapidly evolving from simple assistants into autonomous systems capable of reasoning, maintaining context, and interacting with complex environments. In this meetup, we’ll explore two practical applications of modern agentic AI in software engineering.
The first talk dives into building stateful AI agents that work with real-time data, covering the architectural patterns and challenges behind creating responsive, context-aware systems. The second talk showcases how agentic AI can be applied to understanding and analysing complex legacy applications — helping uncover program flows, dependencies, and hidden system knowledge that would otherwise take countless hours to explore manually.
Whether you’re building AI-powered applications, modernising enterprise systems, or simply curious about the future of intelligent software, this meetup offers hands-on insights into how AI agents are transforming the way we interact with technology
THIS MEETUP WILL BE HYBRID. **\|** Zoom Link will be available shortly before the meetup
\*\*\* AGENDA \*\*\*
* 6\.30 PM \| Doors open\. Grab some snacks & drinks\.
* 7\.00 PM \| Welcome & Intro – **Start of hybrid meetup**
* 7\.15 PM \| **Building Stateful AI Agents with Real-Time Data**, Gregor Bauer (VP Customer Engineering at CrateDB)
* \~8:15 PM \| **Hosty - The next level with Agentic AI,** Martin Binder (Lead IT Consultant at QAware)
* afterwards: More snacks & drinks, and a lot of time for networking with all attendees and speakers.

**Building Stateful AI Agents with Real-Time Data**, Gregor Bauer (VP Customer Engineering at CrateDB)
Most AI demos are stateless. Real systems are not.
Modern AI applications increasingly depend on continuously changing operational data: events, metrics, logs, transactions, sensor streams, and user activity. This creates a new architectural challenge: how do we build AI agents that can reason over live data while remaining scalable and observable ?
This talk explores the architecture of stateful AI systems and agentic applications. We will cover:
* streaming-first AI architectures
* real-time context enrichment
* combining vector search with structured queries
* memory layers for AI agents
* latency and scalability considerations
* operational lessons from large-scale data platforms
The session provides practical guidance for engineers designing production-ready AI platforms.
**Hosty - The next level with Agentic AI,** Martin Binder (Lead IT Consultant at QAware)
To migrate legacy systems, you need to understand these IT dinosaurs, at least partially. So code analysis up to a certain level is unavoidable. What used to take months, sometimes years without LLMs is now doable in a few days with Gemini and friends. And yet: you still have to drive the analysis yourself, stitch the LLM's partial results into a coherent picture and fight the context window. With old source files thousands of lines long, that part really hurt.
Agentic AIs like Claude Code are not just another AI feature. They change how you approach unfamiliar systems — fast, and without the headaches that LLM chat workflows used to come with. Teaser: an analysis that took us a few days under "yay!" cheers is now done in minutes.

Marketing Monday Networking
Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week.
You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring.
Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell.
**This month**
Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads.
**What to expect**
Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM.
